Description

[Technical Field]

The present invention relates to a room temperature curable organopolysiloxane composition for protecting electric/electronic parts from corrosive gases such as hydrogen sulfide gas and sulfuric acid contained in the atmosphere.

[Background Art]

In order to protect electric/electronic parts from corrosive gases such as hydrogen sulfide gas and sulfuric acid contained in the atmosphere, for example, Patent Document 1 proposes a room temperature curable organopolysiloxane composition containing an imidazole compound or a thiazole compound, Patent Document 2 proposes a room temperature curable organopolysiloxane composition containing a nonaromatic amino group containing compound, and Patent Document 3 proposes a room temperature curable organopolysiloxane composition containing a thiazole compound and/or a triazine compound. Unfortunately, even these room temperature curable organopolysiloxane compositions problematically cannot sufficiently protect electric/electronic parts from corrosive gas.
In contrast, Patent Document 4 proposes a room temperature curable organopolysiloxane composition containing one or two or more compounds selected from zinc carbonate and/or zinc oxide, as well as thiazole, thiuram, and thiocarbamate. Unfortunately, this is used for seals around automobile engines, etc. requiring oil resistance and does not disclose the use thereof in protecting electric/electronic parts from corrosive gas.

Examples of this alkoxy group may include alkoxy groups having a carbon number of 1 to 6 such as a methoxy group, an ethoxy group, a propoxy group, and a butoxy group. Examples of other silicon atom-bonded groups in component (A) may include alkyl groups having a carbon number of 1 to 12 such as a methyl group, an ethyl group, a propyl group, a butyl group, a pentyl group, and an octyl group; cycloalkyl groups having a carbon number of 5 to 12 such as a cyclopentyl group, a cyclohexyl group, and a cycloheptyl group; alkenyl groups having a carbon number of 2 to 12 such as a vinyl group, an allyl group, a butenyl group, and a hexenyl group; aryl groups having a carbon number of 6 to 12 such as a phenyl group, a tolyl group, a xylyl group, and a naphthyl group; aralkyl groups having a carbon number of 7 to 12 such as a benzyl group and a phenethyl group; and groups obtained by substituting part or all hydrogen atoms of these groups for halogen atoms such as chlorine atoms and fluorine atoms, with a methyl group, a vinyl group, and a phenyl group preferable. While the molecular structure of component (A) is not limited, examples thereof may include a linear structure, a partially branched linear structure, a branched structure, a ring structure, and a resin structure, with a linear structure and a partially branched linear structure preferable. While the binding position of a hydroxyl group or an alkoxy group in such component (A) is not limited, for example, it preferably bonds to silicon atoms at the terminal of the molecular chain and/or silicon atoms within the molecular chain.

While the method for preparing this composition is not limited, curing of this composition progresses due to moisture, and therefore the composition must be prepared while moisture shielded. Moreover, while moisture shielded, this composition can be stored as a one pack type or a two pack type. This composition is cured by moisture in the air to form a cured product.
Examples of the method for protecting electric/electronic parts using this composition may include application using a dispenser, application using a scraper, and application using a brush. Subsequently, this composition is cured. While the curing conditions of this composition are not limited, curing progresses even at room temperature, making it less likely that heat is applied to electric/electronic parts. Note that if the application of heat to the electric/electronic parts is not problematic, heating to 60°C or lower may be carried out in order to promote curing of this composition. This composition is left to stand at room temperature for approximately several minutes to one week so as to be cured.
